The transmigrated villain wants to escape Feng Aotian's hellish situation.

With a single flap of its wings, it sent all the cultivators undergoing tribulation flying.

This is why there was no one outside when they came out later.

So many cultivators who had undergone tribulation were no match for that roc. The roc's strength must be at least above the sixth level of tribulation. Such a demonic beast had never been heard of in the two continents.

Moreover, the girl's identity was fake; she was not a hidden sect cultivator at all.

The token in her hand was from the Valley of Corpses.

It is said that after this incident, the leaders of various major powers were alarmed, and a group of people descended their projections to track the mysterious girl's aura.

But later, for some reason, the matter suddenly stopped.

Li Mohai had asked his master about it, but his master said not to ask about things that shouldn't be asked, so he gave up at that point.

Later, out of curiosity, Li Mohai collected some information on this topic.

It was discovered that the giants involved in the tracking had all blocked information about the matter, and the girl's identity seemed to have become a taboo.

Even the Demon Corpse Valley, whose tokens were stolen, chose to remain silent. The Three Evil Corpse Saints didn't utter a single word, as if the incident had never happened.

Besides these, Qin Yangjun also received a piece of news.

That is, some changes have occurred in the Desolate Spirit Forest on the Da Yu Continent.

My older sister got bogged down in things over there.

Qin Yangjun received a lot of information from Li Mohai, but he didn't care about most of it. The only useful information was about his sister.

Inside the city lord's mansion, Li Mohai ordered a large banquet to be prepared to entertain Qin Yangjun and Changsun Youyou.

Qin Yangjun, however, was repeatedly pondering the word "change".

There was no mention of the changes in the Wild Spirit Forest in the early stages of the lower realm storyline.

Wait... the Wild Spirit Forest?

Qin Yangjun then realized that he had forgotten someone.

The Demon Lord Xu Moyuan.

In the book, his plan was thwarted by Yu Lingyue, but now, let alone thwarted, he hasn't even been seen.

Qin Yangjun became somewhat excited when he thought about things related to Xu Moyuan.

boom!

Qin Yangjun subconsciously tapped the table.

Damn it, could he have actually succeeded?

Qin Yangjun's sudden action startled Li Mohai, who was standing to the side, and Changsun Youyou, who was busy cooking, was also taken aback.

"Uh...is this food not to your liking? Just tell me and I'll have someone make some more."

Qin Yangjun quickly waved his hand, saying apologetically.

"Oh, not at all, I was just lost in thought."

He then picked up his teacup.

"I will drink tea instead of wine as a self-punishment. Please forgive me, Young Master Li."

Li Mohai waved his hand and smiled.

"It's alright, it's alright. We're just having a regular meal, there aren't that many rules. By the way, Young Master Qin, what have you thought about what I mentioned?"

Qin Yangjun hesitated for a moment, then asked with a slightly embarrassed expression:

"What was it again?"

Li Mohai was speechless. It turned out that he had been talking for so long, but the other person hadn't listened to a single word. He wondered what the other person was thinking about so intently.

He immediately sighed.

"I have a clue about the identity of the person who forged the Seven-Leaf Immortal Lotus. I just want to ask Young Master Qin if you are interested in coming with me to kill that kid."

"Did he screw you over too?"

Li Mohai took a sip of wine and sighed heavily.

"Otherwise, why would I want to kill that kid? If this gets out, Old Zhao will laugh at me for ages. Now I don't even have the face to go back to the sect."

Upon hearing Li Mohai's words, Qin Yangjun took a small sip of tea.

Was Li Mohai framed?

This plot point isn't in the book, so what happened somewhere...?

However, Holy Spirit Mountain is a top-tier sect in the Eastern Continent, and Li Mohai's strength is outstanding among the younger generation.

kill.

Why would he think of involving an outsider like himself?

Is that person very powerful, so much so that Li Mohai was thinking of calling for help?

Chapter 117 'Generous' Rewards

"Who is that person?"

"The people from the Asura Hall, or more precisely, the people under Shadow Asura, I only just learned of his identity. They are from the Lan City Auction House. I caught a glimpse of him using the Asura Hall's secret technique to escape."

"The people at the auction... given the nature of the Asura Palace, won't they silence them?"

Li Mohai put down his wine glass and gave a disdainful laugh.

"Hehe, I happened to be at the gate of Lan City at that time. If they dared to make a move, their spiritual power would be exposed, and even those skilled in escape techniques would not be able to escape my grasp."

Qin Yangjun nodded thoughtfully and put down his teacup.

"Hearing you say that, I'm even more curious. Those people you mentioned are no match for you at all, so why are you dragging me into this?"

"You don't know this, that kid is like an eel. Sometimes even if I know his location, I still can't catch him."

At this point, Li Mohai looked up and gazed intently at Qin Yangjun.

“I was thinking of testing my skills against you before, but now it seems I was too arrogant. After the Deep Sea Dragon Tomb incident, I realized that you are really good at hiding your strength. You have more tricks up your sleeve than I do, and your junior sister is a soul cultivator. With your help, I will definitely be able to take down this kid.”

"Oh, I see..."

Qin Yangjun took a sip of tea casually.

That's a reasonable reason, but... Qin Yangjun felt something was off.

"I know that since I'm asking you, I will definitely give you the corresponding reward. You killed You Huan, so you should have obtained the incomplete manual of the Ascension Technique. The Ascension Technique originated from my Holy Spirit Mountain. How about we use the remaining manual as the reward?"

"puff--!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yangjun was suddenly stunned, a surge of anger rose in his chest, and he spat it directly at Li Mohai.

However, Li Mohai was protected by spiritual energy and was not affected by the tea.

Even Changsun Youyou, who was eating with her head down, was taken aback by Qin Yangjun's reaction.

She was surprised by Qin Yangjun's reaction.

After all, in her eyes, Qin Yangjun's temperament was first-rate; he remained calm even when mountains collapsed in front of him and remained composed even when tsunamis struck.

It's unbelievable that someone like that could lose their composure like that.

Just as she was wondering what the Ascension Technique was, she heard her master's exclamation.

"The art of ascending to immortality? Really?! This remote, secluded place actually has a Taoist temple with its own lineage?!"

"Master... what kind of force is the Heaven and Earth Taoist Temple? It's surprising that it could surprise you so much."

“A very powerful force in the Upper Realm. Listen to me, Youyou, you must get involved in this matter. The Ascension Technique is no weaker than the Nine True Words Mantra. If you can obtain the Ascension Technique, even if it is incomplete, it will be an immense opportunity.”

After speaking, Ling Shenxian turned his divine sense toward Qin Yangjun.

"This Lord Qin Yang is truly a man of great fortune; following him will always bring good things."

"Cough cough cough!!!"

Qin Yangjun coughed violently.

Li Mohai was also satisfied with Qin Yangjun's reaction.

He always had a calm demeanor, as if he knew everything, and being around him was very stressful.

This loss of composure has greatly relieved the pressure on Li Mohai's heart.

After coughing for a while, Qin Yangjun recovered, and the way he looked at Li Mohai changed.

"are you serious?"

Li Mohai nodded very seriously.

"If I need Young Master Qin's help, I will certainly show my sincerity."

Qin Yangjun looked at Li Mohai and fell into deep thought.

The Ascension Technique is a secret method of Holy Spirit Mountain. Back then, the Asura King fought with all his might to only manage to snatch half of it. Now, he's getting it just for killing someone from the Asura Palace. This reward is simply too outrageous.

So things are definitely not that simple.

Could it be about dealing with the Asura Palace?

No...that shouldn't be the case.

The Asura Hall and Holy Spirit Mountain are already mortal enemies, and because of the interference with their breakthrough, the Yuqian Sect will definitely seek revenge against the Asura Hall. Their sister will also seek revenge against the Asura Hall. The two sects have already stood together without anyone noticing.

If his sister were to attack the Asura Palace in the future, Holy Spirit Mountain would definitely join in as well, so there was no need for him to pull this stunt.

Therefore, using the art of ascension to immortality as a reward must have some other meaning.

But before that, there's one thing we need to understand.

"Is this...your idea, or your master's idea?"

Qin Yangjun looked at Li Mohai with a serious expression.

In his view, this was the most important thing. If Li Mohai made the decision on his own, the Ascension Technique would probably just be a verbal promise. He was not yet the Lord of Holy Spirit Mountain, so the Ascension Technique was not under his control.

Li Mohai smiled.
